Moloch (Moloch *aka Molech, or Molek) is called the most wicked entity (moloch is also considered the act of child sacrifice nowadays, and that the false god is actually baal) in the Bible and is described as a Canaanite god. He did not need any introduction to those of that time, due to it being well known how wicked he was. The Scriptures first bring him up in Leviticus, where God warns the Israelites not to join the evil ways of the Canaanites; things like homosexual acts, incest, and especially the sacrifice of children to Moloch.
God says plainly, “You shall not give any of your offspring to be burned for Moloch,” Moloch was the false god of the Ammonites, a people said to come from Lot, who often fought the Israelites and were seen as hostile and wicked for refusing to worship the biblical God. Besides the Ammonites, some Israelites also used child sacrifice as a way to hide children born from affairs, thinking that destroying the child would hide their sin from God. This loophole is perhaps why God speaks to Moses in Leviticus so plainly, the punishment for giving children to Moloch is death. (Leviticus 18-20).
The punishment was not only for Israelites, but for anyone including foreigners living in Israel. God also said that if the person that knows about child sacrifice and they choose to turn away or ignore them, then the person that is choosing to ignore and not do anything will be punished along with their families and those close to them. God will not tolerate silence on wicked acts.
Speaking about those who force a woman to have an abortion to hide immorality: “You do not let a harlot remain a harlot, but make her a murderer as well.” Regarding the abortionist, St. John considered him/her: “. . . worse than a murderer.” - St. John Chrysostom (345-407 A.D.)
Abortion is promoted as healthcare for women across the US. I believe that the abortion industry, like any other but especially in this case, preys on women who have been traumatized by unfortunate circumstances, from financial struggles to difficult domestic situations.
The commonly cited reasons for abortion show that the main factors include financial concerns (40%), timing (36%), partner-related issues (31%), and the need to focus on existing children (29%) but these could seem selfish and don't invoke as much emotional appeal to others as someone facing abuse. Most women reported multiple reasons for seeking an abortion, often spanning several of these categories (64%).You are not a Christian if you advocate for abortion in any instance, and you are both scientifically incorrect as well as inhumane to deny that it is an infant being murdered. I am in no way shape or form saying to demonize women who were coerced or decided to have one especially if they are repentant, I empathize with them and wish to reform such a system to push murder as your first option.
